Thank you [blendman] for the examples
all the examples run nicely. the nice animation and the model viewer

Thanks for the Graphics engine,
i have tried your demo at the bottom of the include file, with a cube

#MAIN_WINDOW = 0
#OPENGL_SCREEN = 0
#PREVIEW_SIZE = 400
#Menu_Event_CloseWindow = 0

OpenWindow( #MAIN_WINDOW, 0, 0, #PREVIEW_SIZE, #PREVIEW_SIZE, "Test ...

the above example should have FlipBuffers() after RenderWorld()
else nothing will display if we choose opengl as a subsystem
what works is:
#PB_Shadow_TextureAdditive and #PB_Shadow_TextureModulative

the same for me CameraRange does not work with shadow

change the Dim in line 15 to
Global Dim Points3D.PointsXYZ(2)
and replace the CircleData() Procedure as in the following
here is the full modified code, but note to view the rotation better make the universe bigger by changing glOrtho... to glOrtho_(-2,2,-2,2,-2,2)

the most hard part for me is to get the coordinates of the multiple points which constitute the Arc
